And neither is it in the Ubuntu Software Centre.
Let's just go back a few steps and see what I was responding to before
this thread takes on a life of its own:

No actually you can install Google chrome with the synaptic package
manager. I have it on several machines, That way you get automatic
updates. I actually installed it because Firefox was doing the same
thing with flash files as google chrome is doing for you.
Flash works fine for me, maybe if you do a reinstall of google chrome
and the plugins it will solve the problem.
